Kenya will not object to a decision by star swimmer Achieng Ajulu-Bushell to compete for Britain, a National Olympic Committee of Kenya official said on Tuesday.

Bushell, 16, the African 50-meter breaststroke record holder, competed for Kenya at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing and the World championships in Rome last year. She had recently stated her wish to change her allegiance to Britain, where she was born.

“We don’t have any objection to letting her go. As far as we are concerned, she has never been a Kenyan. She has been using the Kenyan passport by virtue of her father,” committee secretary Francis Paul said.
